"Oh No You Didn't"

... Oh yes I did........ There are 2 things I would like you to see here. Both are marked with a X. First the top X shows where I missed a join and the bottom X which shows where I cut the thread to finish it off, before I realized that I'd missed a whole section of tatting.

For some reason my friend, Peg - the one I am helping learn to tat - thought that it was really funny that I missed a join and had ALREADY cut the thread. She said something like it was good to see that I make mistakes too.

I've made that cross about 10 times and I bet I made that mistake 3 or 4 times in those ten. There's something about that end ring that I forget. I even left them out for the whole cross because I missed the first one. It was okay but not as nice as the whole thing.
